    Modestly enlarged image can be found at the only work by this artist, so far, to appear in Mr. Melcher’s blog. It is a cropped image of the full painting (see below) that I could find no where else on the web.
    
    Garden of Eden (link shows Wikipedia page) is described by its current-location page (different coloration image, Google translated). Enlarged image can be found here. Other different coloration images can be found here (Google translated) and here (which says it’s a different version of this painting). Click the image at each location for an interactive enlargement. The artist’s WIkipedia page and collection.

    Are you saying that she was to be a Butterball turkey in the original plan?

    The belly-button was there so she could attach the fig leaf. The garden was not zoned for full frontal nudity.
